The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

True Escape by Victoria's Secret was launched in 2017 as a floral fragrance for women that embodies freshness and a sense of escape. The scent opens with bright citrus notes, blending seamlessly into an aldehydic and aromatic heart that adds a modern edge to the composition. White florals emerge softly, creating a harmonious contrast with the fresh spicy undertones, ensuring this fragrance feels both classic and contemporary.

How to wear it

One or two sprays are sufficient to capture True Escape’s essence. The citrus top notes fade within an hour, but the white floral heart and aromatic base linger well into the day, making it perfect for daytime wear.
